6. Allah (SWT) refers to the revelation of the Qur’an as “tanzil’ which refers to the gradual revelation of the Qur’an to the Holy Prophet (S) over the 23 years of his prophethood.
In other places in the Qur’an, such as in Surat al-Qadr (below), the word “anzala” is used to describe revelation:
إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ Surely We revealed it on the grand night. [97:1]
The word “anzala” comes from the word “inzaal”, which refers to the revelation of the entire Qur’an in one go.
